Basal Cell Cancer
After my total shoulder replacement in June things were pretty quiet and life was so good and busy that I haven't had time to check in. Well for those of you who know my history, things don't tend to stay quiet too long for me, (5 surgeries in the past 2 years, 4 unrelated to bc). I just had Mohs surgery for basal cell carcinoma on the side of the bridge of my nose. I am just curious how many bc patients have had bouts with skin cancer as well? Is there any relation between the two at all? I am happy to report that the surgery removed it all in my case. Thank goodness it was basal. Oh Sheila, so happy to read about your positive response to your new miracle drug.
